Originally posted by StevieM well I'm no angel. I swear but, was brought up to not swear.

My parents & my husband rarely curse. I rarely do it in front of my parents out of respect for them, b/c I know it's offensive to them. With my husband, on the other hand, I let the expletives fly freely, & he can just get over it. I would NEVER swear in front of children or in a professional situation though. I had a customer swear at me yesterday b/c he was angry with his loan officer. He used the "f"-bomb with me & "s**t". After the second time, I was ready to politely tell him that I would appreciate he not use that type of language with me if he wanted to continue the conversation. He called back later & was much nicer & didn't use profanity. He didn't actually apologize, but I could tell that he was sorry he spoke to me like that.

Another thing I think I would do as a man, would be to go up to complete stranger playing golf or basketball and just join in the game..
Girls NEVER do that, we don't go to the mall and see a group of women and think hey I would like to shop with yall or lunch with you etc..

Hmmm....firegirl, to me that's two completely different things. I can definitely go up to strangers and ask to join a game - which isn't personal, but I would never walk up to strangers and ask to join them shopping or going for lunch, as that is something personal.

No, Phat made reference to it on the previous page when he said and I quote...

"One of my top movie moments: That scene in True Romance where Christian Slater's character goes into a tirade about "If I had to, I mean, I absolutely had to sleep with another man, it would be Elvis.""
